MOOP!

First off, apologies to futuresoon, who I stole this lovely icon from, precisely for the purposes of making this post. Go watch Tin Man, if you haven't, it's good fun, Alan Cumming is beautiful, and it has Kat's number one hottest actress as the lead. (Ee, Zooey)

ANYWAYS!

Glitch had his brain cut out because he knew too much. Zaphod cauterized his own brain to hide the fact that he knew too much. Discuss.

MOOP!

(No, there was no point to this post, besides to illustrate the fact that I think about some weird shit sometimes.)

YAY MEMES!

Comment on this post. I will choose six userpics from your profile and you will explain what they mean and why you are using them. Post your answers (and this explanation of the meme) in your own journal (if you want) so others can play along. Or heck, post them here if you don't want to toss it into your own journal, I don't mind.

Mom wanted to know about:

1) Dumblydore:


So, there's this journal potterpuffs which is pretty much amazing, if defunct. And so I decided to take Dumbledore, who has been my favourite Harry Potter character since "Nitwit! Blubber! Oddment! Tweak!", and turn him into an icon. I have (not uploaded) an icon with the same text, only with a picture of Loony Luna Lovegood.

I use this one when I'm feeling exceptionally carefree and happy. The world looks so damn beautiful!

2) Suicide Marsha:


College Roomies From Hell did a storyline where Marsha, in a fit of total life-suck, decided to step off the roof of her building and end it all. See here. She looked so sad and so strangely beautiful in that first panel, that I had to iconify it.

I use the icon for my hella-emo posts, and some thoughtstreams. Generally, if I'm crying when I write a post, I'll use this icon.

3) GID


GID --Goldheart Infinity Delorous is my puppydog. She says 42 if you squeeze her ear. OtherKat sent her to me for our first Christmas where we swapped presents, and she remains soft and fuzzy.

This picture just turned out hella good, really. So I iconified it. I do not use it very often, and it's one of the ones I might eventually drop.

4) Mr ORLY


O RLY? is one of the meme's that I have totally not fallen into (unlike lawlkitties), but this icon made me laugh like it was going out of style. Mostly, I just like Mr. Men.

This icon is technically supposed to be used when I'm talking about memes, but I don't think I keep good enough track.

5) I like Ham


Okayso.

There's this really amazingly funny book called "The Pirates! In an Adventure with Scientists" which Luna gave me for Christmas 2006. I lurved the book to bits and pieces, and mentioned one day that I wanted an icon of Captain Mal and Zoey pulling off the Pirate Captain and the pirate with the scarf's ham dialogue. Tho obliged. \

Ideally, I would use this one to discuss books, ham, and pirates!

6) Clone Me


This icon made more sense when OKat had hers up as well. Tho randomly gifted the two of us with mirror image birdhouses, each with a line from "Birdhouse in your Soul" on them. It made it hard to tell the two of us apart. :D

I should use this to talk about Katters, Blue, or TMBG. Except I have a TMBG icon, so I don't need to.

Yep.

MOOP!

Before any actual posting gets done, here in the first line that people actually read, I just need to say that Skullx is SUPER AWESOME! for making me a new avatar, without even being asked. The extremely astute may note that it looks exactly like the other avatar he made me, only about four years older, in Boston, and with a duck. Oh, and wearing glasses, since apparently my original pirate skullx doesn't have glasses on it (Which I totally didn't realize until just now.)

So yeah. Skullx is incredibly awesome. *gives him cookies*

Onto other stuff.

Eventually I may get the "what I've been doing" post up, but in the meantime, this is just a bookpost, mostly to keep track for myself.

Yesterday I read:

The Pirates Mixed Up Voyage by Margaret Mahy (Who is apparently an EnZed native and I would TOTALLY GO STALK HER if I ever got out there.) I actually started this one a few days over, but I read most of it yesterday. It is, of course, my favourite childrens book ever, and my "Today has blown donkeys, I need a good book" book. This was the first time I'd read it in about five months due to assorted circumstances.

and

Rats Saw God by Rob Thomas. I've read this once before, and I enjoyed it just as much this time. Rats Saw God is a sort of counterculture coming of age story, with a narrator who is actually intelligent, and a lot of dadist art and culture floating around. It's a pretty good story, and what kick started my (albeit small) interest in dada.

More later. I actually hope to chronicle every book I read while up here. For now though, I need to do some homework.

I will say this about todays adventures: I walked over to the xkcd park, mostly to find out how long it would take (about half an hour if I go the Mass Av route --I'm sure there's a quicker way, it just requires more directions) and it is a Good Playground. The giant pyramidal thing in the satellite view on GoogleMaps? It's a giant thing to climb on, made entierly by rope fastened together in various shapes. It's beautiful.

September 23rd can't come soon enough!

MOOP!

If I have not mentioned lately that I absolutely adore thorog in every way because he is totally awesome, then I feel I should do so right now.

I have a new icon.

Thorog is frigging AWESOME!

~Sor
MOOP!

Because nothing ever happens in my life.

Besides Eric going home and making life less confusing. Oh, and Chris hanging out hereabouts. And seeing Charlie the Unicorn.

I'm definently in the market for a "shuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuunn" avatar if anyone talented out there is up to it.

( And now! The Memealige!! )

Well, that was fun.

I should write my own meme. The first question would clearly have to be "What book would you like to be killed with". Since this is one of the things me and Chris talked about.

MOOP!

Quote of the day!:
Me: Girls confuse me too
Jarne: What's with the whole bleeding thing, you sick masochists!

MOOP!

((Although, if this whole discussion on the removal of pants continues, I might have another for you.

Clearly my girlfriend shouldn't go off to watch Monk. I get bored and start talking to crazies and next thing you know, I'm apparently wearing Leonardo Da Vinci's pants...))

This was FAR too cool to pass up:

Who else is love?

pseudomonas me scripsit anno 2005

I really really like how the eye came out. I'm not too keen on the way my skullx came out either time though. Oh well, nice that it was twice.

Also: THIS was WAY too cool to pass up. Yay Google!!

Off to see the Advanced Drama plays now...tonight, at the school, at seven. Come see Emily and Veronica in starring roles!

~Sor
MOOP!

Oh yes, and I mean no disrespect to the injured, but the piccie ShutterGal posted a few days ago of Lee was just BEGGING to have the eye turned into an icon.

So I did. It is a rather beautiful shade of blue, isn't it. And look! When you crop it this much, the bruises dissapear.

I love you both, please don't hurt me!

~Sorcy

MOOP!

Please leave a comment with the three avatars that you think best represent me since my paid account will be running out soon. (to view all of them, click on my picture in my user info.)

I can't guarentee that those will be the three I pick, but if I find that a lot of people like my kobold avie (fer instance) I'm more likely to keep it.

Your Loyal Storyteller

MOOP!
